The Guns of Navarone isthe film adaptation of the novel by Alistair MacLean, a Scottish writer. It is not based on a true story in the sense that it is a retelling of a particular incident that actually happened. It describes the work of the British Commandoes during World War 2. The incidents in the novel actually happened. They described real actions performed by British Commandoes. They simply did not occur at one time, at one place, and in one particular sequence as described in the novel. It is loosely based around the battles occuring in the Grecian Isles between the the British and American forces after the surrender of Italy to the Allies, in particular the Battle of Leros during the Dodecanese Campaign.
'The Guns of Navarone ' is fiction and was based upon Alistair MacLean's novel of the same name .
